Five Things

::Five things I love about me::

::My nose. I feel a sense of accomplishment in saying this. My entire life I have despised this part of me. Ever since that fateful summer afternoon when I was playing catcher in a neighborhood baseball game. That day, my very own sister whacked me in the face with a metal bat trying to hit a home run. I have learned over time that this is one of the things that makes me, me. I really do love my nose.

::My teeth. They are straight without ever having had braces and I think that's pretty cool.

::Freckles. I have freckles all over and I love them. I love that my biggest boy has inherited this trait from me. I love that every summer I can count on them to darken and blend together.

::I love being a brunette. Some people wish to be blond, but I never have. I love that I have dark hair, light skin, and hazel eyes.

::My clavicle. Is that a weird thing to love about yourself? I have a really pretty clavicle and I'm not ashamed to admit it. Ryan loves it too.

I was prompted to compile this list by this dear girl. Read what she loves about herself here and take the challenge for yourself. It's fun.

Can I say one thing....supermodels!!!! You and Audrey both. What an amazing picture! Thanks for sharing your list, it's important to love who you are and feel blessed for the things you have. To often in life people forget this and spend most of their time looking at the negative.

Oh yeah, I will say how LUCKY you are to never have needed braces! Spencer was the same way...maybe our kids WILL get lucky! Oh who am I kidding? The ortho is going to be getting lots of mullah from this family!

I love this post Danyelle. I love the picture, it is just beautiful of the two of you. I think Audrey looks like you. And the bat.. holy ow! I am totally going to join in on this. I think it is so important to like ourselves! You are beautiful inside and out.

i'm so happy that you did this. i found it sort of emotional to say outloud the things that i like about myself. i love you and audrey's eyes in this picture. almost a steal blue color. gorgeous. thank you for sharing and playing along.

You are beautiful! This is a gorgeous picture of you, too! You do have very beautiful features and I love all the same things about you that you pointed out! Although, I'd have to get a closer look at that clavicle. You only like one clavicle? Don't you have 2 that you admire? :)

I really enjoyed reading your list, Danyelle. I think as women, in general, we are very hard on ourselves so it is refreshing to read the things that love about yourself. I know everyone's already commented on the picture, but it really is a beautiful picture.

oh - that's a sweet picture and list of things to love about yourself. I find that when we are happy in our own skin, the way we look at life is a bit happier, too. I can tell just by my crazy lady phone call to you that you are a sweet, genuine person. can't wait to meet you...sooner than later! -amy**guess i really better get my buns in shape since i said that they are a nice attribute of mine!!

I just found something else we have in common! I too have had nose issues until a close encounter with a softball. Then my nose got really huge, and after it went back to normal, it didn't seem so bad. Loved this post! I have always wanted freckles - love yours - sooo cute! You are beautiful inside and out!
